The localhost port for the Elsa.Samples.AspNet.RunTaskIntegration has been updated from 7211 to 5001 in both the run-workflow.http and launchSettings.json files. This adjustment ensures that the workflow sample correctly points to the new localhost port, maintaining synchronization within the application.
Modified the way task payload is extracted in the OrderFoodTaskHandler.cs for more robustness. The input parameter of the workflow builder in the HungryWorkflow.cs file has also been refactored for efficiency. Making these tweaks streamlines management of values within the tasks.
Updated the WorkflowDefinitionActivityProvider code to fetch activity descriptors in a paginated manner. This change will be useful to avoid overloading system resources when interacting with large amounts of data. It retrieves a limited number of descriptors per request, looping until all are fetched.
Closes#4689
The version number of Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm has been updated in the Elsa.AllInOne.Web.csproj file. This change reflects the newest release, moving from version 3.0.0-preview.164 to 3.0.0-preview.167.
The change clears specific activity instance bookmarks in the context from the WorkflowExecutionContext. This is an extra step in the process of clearing bookmarks, which assists in managing and cleaning up workflow state effectively.
Refactored the ServiceBus Integration tests for improved readability and maintenance. The changes included reducing the number of lines by removing unnecessary curly braces, removing unnecessary use of 'this' qualifier, replacing null checks with null-conditional operators, and organizing various code blocks for better understanding.
Code in several activity files and Worker.cs that involve creating bookmarks and handling messages received was refactored to improve readability and clarity. The instantiated "CreateBookmarkArgs" parameter was split into its individual arguments for improved readability. Logging in the Worker.cs file was also fine-tuned, with explicit count of workflows triggered by service bus messages being included in the debug log.
Refactoring was performed in the ActivityExecutionContext class to use object initializers for readability and clarity. This modification mainly targets the CreateBookmark and ScheduleActivityAsync methods, making their code more explicit and thus easier to understand.
The AutoComplete option has been added to the workflow bookmarks, which determines whether the activity should automatically be completed if no callback is specified. This change improves the flexibility of bookmark creation and impacts various workflow elements and procedures. The corresponding adjustments have been made at functions where bookmarks are used or created.
A Noop method has been added to the WorkflowExecutionContext, and is now assigned to the ExecuteDelegate field when no resumption point is specified. The change, will prevent the invocation of the regular "ExecuteAsync" method, closing the activity without additional operations.
The ObjectConverter file has been updated to support conversion of 'long' type. This is done by adding an additional conditional statement for checking the underlying source type for 'long', then returning the converted value.
Refactored the workflow handling logic and simplified numerous components in the codebase. Major changes include the enhancement of the Workflow Runtime handler, altering the broadcast and deliver functions in the Default Workflow Inbox, and the removal of unnecessary details in the Workflow Runtime feature. Also, unnecessary services and requests were removed for better code efficiency and readability.
The code addition includes two dependencies, IBookmarksPersister and IWorkflowStateExtractor, in the DefaultBackgroundActivityInvoker service. With these changes, during the workflow execution phase, bookmarks are captured and processed for any state changes. These modifications provide more control and efficiency over handling workflow states during the system's background operations.
The code introduces BookmarkPersister for processing bookmarks as part of the workflow runtime. This refactoring improves readability and maintainability by separating the bookmark persisting logic from the PersistBookmarkMiddleware class. A new class, BookmarkUpdater, is also added to handle updating of bookmarks. Changes also include adjustments to several other classes for improved functionality and code consistency.
The new dictionary entry for 'Persister' has been added to Elsa.sln.DotSettings. This expands the vocabulary of the solution's user dictionary and ensures that 'Persister' is recognized as a valid term within the project context.
New methods have been added to handle the custom property 'runAsynchronously' on a JsonObject activity. These methods will help in getting and setting a value that indicates whether a specified activity can trigger a workflow asynchronously. This additional level of control can enhance workflow execution based on specific requirements.
The BulkDispatchWorkflows.cs activity in Elsa.Workflows.Runtime module has been updated with some key changes: Added detailed description to the input element, introduced the dispatchedInstancesCount to accurately track the number of instances dispatched, and removed some unnecessary white spaces for improved readability.
The ActivityKind property in BulkDispatchWorkflows class has been changed from Job to Task. This updates the type of activity associated with the BulkDispatchWorkflows process within the Elsa workflow runtime module.
Background activities scheduling was moved to its own middleware where the actual scheduling happens instead of in the invoking middleware. Removed ScheduleBackgroundActivities.cs handler and added ScheduleBackgroundActivitiesMiddleware.cs instead. As a part of this change, restructured BackgroundActivityInvokerMiddleware to BackgroundActivityCollectorMiddleware, and updated all relevant references.
Minor modifications to a few other files include changes in their package dependencies and activity kind settings.
Modified methods in the WorkflowInstance.cs to implement re-entrant approach for asynchronous execution. This is achieved by replacing 'await' with task-based calls passed through the Context.ReenterAfter method, providing more efficient non-blocking operations. Minor changes were also made in ClusterExtensions.cs and ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime.cs, including code clean up and slight modifications to maintain consistency.
The changes introduce a batch processing mechanism in the BulkDispatchWorkflows activity. Previously, each workflow was dispatched individually. Now, the process groups the workflows in batches, processes each batch concurrently, and handles errors. This change improves performance, particularly for large data sources.
Simplified README.md by removing in-depth Console and ASP.NET Core examples, as well as mentions about building from source, serving overall clarity and readability. Added descriptions for coded and visual workflow design possibilities.
The JavaScriptEvaluator now accepts an options parameter of type ExpressionEvaluatorOptions. This allows adding custom arguments to the evaluation context. An 'Empty' static instance of ExpressionEvaluatorOptions is added for convenience. Additionally, the usage of MassTransitAzureServiceBus in Program.cs is turned off by setting the flag to 'false'.
This commit includes new integration tests for implicit join scenarios. The tests ensure that join and parallel join activities execute correctly and complete as expected. Additionally, a change has been made to the workflow execution context to prevent duplicate activity scheduling. Now, aside from checking if the activity is already scheduled, it also checks if the activity is scheduled for the specified owner.
Fixes#4703

This commit enhances the configuration options for the MassTransit integration, providing additional settings for both Azure Service Bus and RabbitMq. It also refines the MassTransit workflow dispatcher configuration by allowing for custom dispatcher options. A default RabbitMq connection string has been added to the appsettings.json.
AzureServiceBusOption.cs and RabbitMqOptions.cs files were removed as they're no longer needed. The system now defers the configuration of MassTransit and AzureServiceBus to the application layer (Program.cs). The configuration for PrefetchCount is also allowed at the transport-level. A new abstraction, ConsumerTypeDefinition, collects all the consumer types with their respective definitions if provided. Adjustments have been made in related extension methods and classes to reflect these changes.
A new method, GetIsWorkflowDefinitionActivity, has been added to the ActivityExtensions class. This method checks a given JsonObject representing an activity to determine if it's a workflow definition activity. It returns true if the activity indeed is; otherwise, it returns false.
